Summary: In The Bible after Babel John J. Collins considers the effect of the postmodern situation on biblical, primarily Old Testament, criticism over the last three decades. Collins examines the quest of historical criticism to objectively establish a text's basic meaning. Accepting that the Bible may no longer provide secure ""foundations"" for faith, Collins still highlights its ethical challenge to be concerned for ""the other""--A challenge central both to Old Testament ethics and to the teaching of Jesus.
